My mom and I recently visited Ventfort Hall and couldn’t believe we hadn’t been here before! We joined a tour led by docent Meg Williamson, who was just fantastic. Meg is a gifted storyteller who brought the home to life as we explored various rooms. You really feel as if you’re swept back in time, experiencing the home as the owners of this ‘little summer cottage’ would have. The restoration work that has been done on Ventfort is also incredibly impressive, and I was stunned to hear that there were plans to demolish/convert it at one point. Hats off to the team who rescued this gem! Already looking forward to returning next year for Summer Tea! Definitely put this one on your list if you have a free hour – take the tour and ask for Meg.
This Gothic Revival structure was built in 1861 for The Episcopal Society in Lee, Massachusetts.
